Happy to see a cooler cloudy day for a little break from the sunshine, we took a lovely walk along a different route; the West Song Walkway from downtown to Westbay Marine Village in Esquimalt. Some pics to enjoy:
From the blue bridge we spy these colourful kayakers enjoying the day on the water.
Just past the blue bridge, we begin along the Songhees area portion of the walkway. The Ocean Pointe Resort is just on the right. The West Song Walkway is a very beautiful pedestrian path along the Victoria Harbour. It takes about 40 minutes each way, or stop 15 minutes in at Spinnakers Gastro Pub for a bite or drink.
A view of the Inner Harbour from a different direction. The Welcome to Victoria sign built from yellow flowers is quite visible even from this distance.
Looking back, a view of our hard-working blue bridge; still in service while its replacement is being built beside it.
A view of Fisherman’s Wharf. Our walks usually take find on that side of the harbour.
A beautiful Heron takes a break from fishing. In the background across the harbour is the Fisheries Canada facility in James Bay.
Approaching the end of the walk, we have a glimpse of Westbay Marine Village. The shoreline was littered with deadheads from bright red geraniums which were quite pretty floating in the water.
